The King's Palace Tour
The Decorated Rooms


The King's palace section of the caverns had, at one time, been the most popular part of the open section of the caves. This is universally held to be the most intricate, and spectacular portion of the the whole system. Sadly, the temptation was just too much, and many visitors were caught breaking bits of the formations off, to take home. Access is now by guided tour only.
